What started as a fun activity on social media has now turned into a commercial enterprise for four Ghanaian young men who bear a striking resemblance to popular celebrities in the country.
Kuami Eugene, King Promise, Medikal, and Mr. Drew’s lookalikes have formed a team and are making waves on social media with their videos mimicking their respective celebrities.
In a recent interview, the team revealed that they are now receiving a lot of love from the public, and this has translated into financial gains for them.
To further expand their team, they announced that they are open to adding new lookalikes but with a caveat; interested individuals would have to pay a registration fee of Ghc 500 to join.
This move has stirred mixed reactions among Ghanaians, with some questioning the legitimacy of the team’s operations while others applaud their ingenuity in monetizing their resemblance to celebrities.
The team’s leader, who goes by the name King Promise lookalike, defended their decision to charge a registration fee, stating that they need to invest in their business to sustain their success.
He added that the registration fee would help cover the costs of creating their content and building their brand.
While some may view their move as a clever way to capitalize on their resemblance to celebrities, others have criticized the team for commercializing what started as a fun activity on social media.
Regardless of the differing opinions, the ‘Celeb Look-Alike’ team seems poised to keep making waves on social media and possibly pave the way for other creative entrepreneurs to monetize their talents online.
